Don't Tread On Me
these things.
these things you do
on the 4th of July
at an age
without thought...
things happen in front of
Madam Maria's...
(things happen
on the boardwalk
in Asbury Park...
...the police officer,
with a glee in his eye said
he was going to put
me in the cell with
Big Mortimor,
the happy tone in his voice
(and it worked.)
I was ******* myself,
serial killer
hit man for the mafia,
******... roommate...???
this isn't about me,
what brought me here
to the city yard ...
as it turns out,
it was Reverend Mortimer
from Our Lady of the Perpetual Motion.
the issue it seems was
the sisters.
the Sisters of Perpetual Motion,
for a $20 donation and up
a sister will love you.
more later, about the reverend, but back
to what brought me here
to a cell in the city yard
of Asbury Park.
as I reflect on what brought here
(vaguely)
to the city yard of Asbury Park
ah, fight.?
I had said to her,
your boyfriend,
"he's only over compensating
for his receeding hair line
and feelings of inadequacy,
ah, ah, a fight went down, I believe.
(I didn't know I had hit
the mayor.)
what more can I say
about my stay,
in the City of Asbury Park ?
the sisters???
that things happen
and you end up
in a cell
in the city yard
in Asbury Park
with a room without no view...
...oh, back to Reverend Mortimer. apparently
the. U.S Constitution,
NAACP, ACLU.
it was a religious issue. AND SO, FREE
the Reverend Mortimer threw a big party
with the Sisters of Our Lady
of Perpetual Motion!!!
